EF clutch in an EG
my clutch is goin out on my z6 i have a CM clutch from my old EF and im wondering if i can use it. i did some searching and found out that there are a few different sizes of clutches and found some measurements but im not exactly sure what im supposed to be measuring. this is what i found so far.
88 si clutch diameter 190mm
89 si clutch diameter 200mm
90-91 si clutch diameter 212mm
92-95 si clutch diameter 212mm
the clutch that i have seems to measure closer to the 212mm more than anything and im not sure what year si tranny i had this clutch in before so...should i just measure the outside diameter, of the surface (on the preasure plate) where the disc presses against the preasure plate? or should i measure the OD of the disc iteself? i ask cause they are 2 different diameters.

well its not an 88 thats the only one with different splines all the rest are the same. i would like to use the disc too but i suppose your right i could just use the preasure plate and a new disc, at least that will hold until i can afford a new blingin clutch.

Ahhh bone ive been waiting for you! so what exactly do i need to measure to tell beyond reasonable doubt what size clucth it is that i have laying round in my garage!
and secondly if it is an 89 clutch 200mm, can i use it in a 93 tranny?

you could use it in the 93 tranny if it's an 89, but I think you have to use the 89 flywheel/pp/clutch disc.
Just meaure the actual disc, it's .5 inch difference, should be plenty to tell. You want to see about 8.35 inches, if it's under 8 you're screwed.

you can use a 200 mm clutch with the stock 90-00 setup.
Notice the WIDE pressure plate. The 212mm disc uses all but the inner 1/2" of the surface. The 200mm disc uses all but the OUTER 1/2" of the surface.
But the smaller clutch has less grip, just like smaller brakes.
FYI some 96-97 Civics (HX HB's) came with 200mm discs......how you think I got a 200mm disc
I've always wondered if it would be good/bad to have a clutch that used all the pressure plate face, not 80% of it.
